Line 1: Line 1:
Say: O heedless one, if you hear from this servant, then do what we remind you of so that you will be among the winners! Purify yourself from anything other than God, then say: “In the name of God, by God, and wash with water.” And after you have finished, say: “O my God and my beloved, just as you have cleansed my outward appearance from this water, purify my heart and my heart from the soul and passion so that I may know You and be separated from the worlds.” “Then place [411] your face on the dust in submission to God, Lord of lords, say: “Oh my God and my Master, I ask you in your name by which the earthquake appeared in the tribes of the earth and the sky and the noise rose up among the crowds of creation and the souls of the doubters and the facts of the heedless were disturbed, that you forgive me My actions, which the eye of creativity has not witnessed, resembled it. By your honor, O my beloved, I have come to you with a sin that is not equivalent to the sins of those who were created by your wonderful, creative saying.
Therefore, have mercy on this disobedient one, then clothe me with the garment of forgiveness, purify me from human predestination, and direct me to Your greater vision, so that nothing remains in my chest except the benefactor of Your Gratitude, and nothing remains in my heart except the manifestations of Your love, and nothing remains on my face except the radiance of Your pleasure. And You are the One who has power over whatever You will, and You are the Dominant, the Powerful, the Mighty, the Powerful. Oh my God, this one is a disobedient who hastened to beg for your forgiveness, and this one is a poor man who has clung to the hem of your mantle of wealth and self-sufficiency. O Lord, do not deprive me of what You have, then make me pure for Your Face and submissive when the lights of the glory of Your individuality appear. And you have always been of eternal virtue, and you have power over all things.

And You are the One who has power over whatever You will, and You are the Dominant, the Powerful, the Mighty, the Powerful. Oh my God, this one is a disobedient who hastened to beg for your forgiveness, and this one is a poor man who has clung to the hem of your mantle of wealth and self-sufficiency.
